“Screening the shorts films for the festival was a really cool experience. I got to see a lot of what is out there being made today. Getting to meet my fellow interns was nice, as we all had a shared interest in film. I like that we were mostly remote, with some in person opportunities too. ”

“It was easy to apply through handshake. I loved the ability to search for a new experience in a new industry without any scary risks or convoluted searching process. It was a very flexible working schedule.”
